Luminosa Light Designs - A True Standout in Service and Dedication…read more Coming in off the street with a quirky, hard-to-solve problem, I wasn't sure what kind of help I'd be able to get. But Carmen at Luminosa Light Designs jumped in without hesitation. After more than 45 years in the construction industry, it's rare -- and refreshing -- to meet someone who offers their time, energy, and expertise without any guarantee of compensation. She tackled the challenge of tracking down a reluctant supplier and worked tirelessly to find a solution and fair pricing. Her passion for what she does, her professionalism, and her deep knowledge of the field are simply unmatched. Thanks to Carmen, I didn't just find a solution -- I found a team I'll be loyal to. I'm not just a customer now -- I'm an advocate for life.

Once we walked in the door, we saw 2 employees at the counter, another 1 at another desk, and at least another 3-4 walking around the store attending to whatever business they were attending to. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM even acknowledged our existence. No "Hello", "Good afternoon", not even a smile. My husband actually had to say "Hello" to THEM, and he barely got a nod back. We looked at their bathroom vanity lights for a solid 20 minutes, and not a single person approached us to ask if we needed help. They didn't have the best selection either. Just 1 back wall of lights, around $200-400 range. Oh, the staff was too busy talking amongst themselves about what happened on last night's episode of Master Chef to bother with us. We walked out without getting a "Have a good day" or "Thank you" and vowed never to return. There are plenty of other lighting stores in Vancouver. Go somewhere where they actually acknowledge you and treat you as a potential customer.

When you deal with one place that has a chain of stores you would think that product, let alone…read moreservice would be consistent around the board. While planning my washroom renovation, this was one of the stops, to see what the better stuff looks like. You can go to your Rona's and Home Depot's all you want for building supplies, but when it comes to faucet's, tubs, shower bases, shower systems, these guys carry a higher end range of product from Grohe to Riobel to Kohler you'll find some good stuff here. The place has a huge showroom, and when I was in here, walking in, amazingly enough it did not feel like a greenhouse, as you do see a ton of lights being displayed. This maybe the prettiest Robinson Lighting showroom I have seen, yet they lack service, most people I find behind a computer behind a counter. And compared to another review of mine at another location, I did not get this here, not even a smidgen close to the attention and service I received at another store. I wasn't even quoted, or given the option of a shower base I was looking for (60 x 30) and said it would take a few weeks? OK are you guys franchised here, cause I just did this transaction a few hours before entering this store. So I was quite confused with the whole matter, at the same time this store, as said, is nicely located, has great selection, and doesn't carry the cheap substitutes you might see in places like going along Bridgeport in Richmond where there are a ton of light stores. If you take pride in where you live, willing to spend more, and not wanting it to look like a cheap addition/renovation where your renting it out, or flipping it on the market, your probably coming here to get something, the only downside is the service, other than that it's not a bad store.

Up on a ladder, 6 months pregnant, in the rain, I gave my head a shake and thought let's hire someone just this year. That was several years ago, and we have been with Light Knights ever since. The lights are always perfect. The installers are professional, respectful of our home and gardens, and very hard working. I was so happy to see our lights go up today and can't wait to turn them on for the season. Hopefully the crew was able to get warm and dry out in between installs with this down pour.

After they did the work I was not able to get a permit because they did their calculations wrong and to do the work properly I had to end up paying double. I refused because I lost all trust in this company. If they had quoted me double to begin with I would have gone with someone else. I will never use superb electric and warm anyone who needs electric work to go with another company. It seems the initial calculations should be able to be done properly so the quotes can be done properly and the customer doesn't have to pay thousands extra because the technician can't calculate. I was offered a discount on the additional work but it was not nearly enough to compensate for the mistake made. Stay away from superb electric!

The former Vancouver Architectural Antiques, a fixture on Main Street for two decades, was reborn…read moreand rebranded earlier this year with a "renewed" focus on restoring early nineteenth and twentieth century lighting pieces, antique decor, and various architectural elements in their new location. Reopening as Renew Period Lighting & Decorative Arts (aka "Renew Gallery"), the refreshed business is very much in the same mould of its predecessor also from renowned antique expert Eric Cohen. Renew features an extensive and eclectic collection of period lighting and fine antique pieces from all over the world in a more viewing friendly setting and atmosphere. Gone is the retail feel with its relaunch as a formal gallery and wholesaler on a bigger digital scale. The gallery appeals to all sorts of designers, builders, and architects looking for the right pieces including set decorators for Hollywood productions filmed in town. In the back, Renew features a dedicated space for carefully restoring and maintaining many of its complex artifacts to their former glory. The gallery has brought a contemporary twist to its antique business as it adapts to technology and the digital marketplace. It's a beautiful space filled with storied antiques and all sorts of collectables in great shape. It's aiming to be a new and old treasure in the city.
